| Beschrijving keerzijde | A finely engraved intaglio vignette occupies the central field, rendering a tranquil Samoan coastal scene with a traditional thatched fale in the foreground, coconut palms lining the shoreline, a small outrigger canoe on calm waters, and lush tropical vegetation to the right. Two circular guilloche medallions bearing the '$2' numeral flank the upper corners, with the issuer name in the lower centre. The entire design is printed in a single deep blue ink. |

Bradbury Wilkinson printed the original issue of this note sometime in the 1967–1968 period following Samoan independence, working from their New Malden facility — a house better known for engraved intaglio work on Commonwealth issues across the Pacific and Caribbean. The reprint carrying the "S" prefix before the serial number appeared in 2020, more than three decades after Bradbury Wilkinson itself ceased operations in 1990, meaning the later printing was executed under successor arrangements rather than the original firm.
That gap between original issue and reprint is the genuinely odd thing here. A note design kept in circulation across more than fifty years without a denomination change is unusual by any measure.
